What is it like dating a Romanian?

Dating Romanians ... ffs they're just like everybody else



IDK where the whole 'romanians are promiscuous' thing came from - it's not the first time i've heard ppl say this)
actually, i think it's quite the opposite. as a nation, we tend to have quite a traditional view of sex and everything that has to do with it, and that's mainly because the vast majority of the population follows the Orthodox Church, which, over the years, has definitely had an influence on our way of thinking (I'm a Catholic, but still)
for instance, I know very few people who are genuinely promiscuous, and even fewer who've had as much as a one nighter.



meh some of the gypsies in the uk haven't even seen romania.. they just call themselves rroma and people are like meh, sounds like romania
don't really understand the accent thing? idk, i don't have an accent, but i may be an exception. and does your bf speak differently when you two have sex? omg
anyway i'm glad you're happy together, all the best


i can actually taste the bitterness in this user's reply
anyway it's an old one so chances are they aren't gonna see what i'm saying .. but it's not like romanians are renowned for **** like this



i'm not sure what cities you've visited, i've never experienced anything like this
and meh, you're citing anecdotal evidence
and regarding those men - this doesn't happen in civilized places.. maybe just in the countryside or god knows where


all the stigma associated with romanians is due to 1. gypsies 2. uneducated ppl coming to the uk, rather than educated ones (most of which would rather remain in their own country)

okay, rant partially over

now about dating romanians
like i said, there's not something special about it but if you want some stereotypes, well, this is what you should expect:
commitment (already spoke about this one)
(sort of) traditional values (even among non religious people) ... these two actually go hand in hand..
family-oriented
i've seen shyness mentioned around here too, and I may have an explanation for it. romanians love and hate their country at the same time, and some of them may be inclined to think that brits are sort of a 'superior breed' and maybe they'd find it a bit difficult to approach em
some lack self-esteem ...after years and years of getting bullied by 'better countries'
they cook good food (i don't lol)
generous, love to share stuff
they're resourceful (even the less educated ones - they usually do a brilliant job ..even as bricklayers lol)
intelligent (they're usually top performers at uni)
specialised in STEM subjects .. i know this doesn't really have anything to do with relationships, but school (which is absolutely crazy here) does influence ppl, and here you don't really have a choice what subject you study in college. you can either do maths and comp science, natural sciences, philology or social sciences (and most people do maths and computer science, so they're somewhat forced to become good at the subjects taught at this profile .. fun fact: further maths is mandatory here)
hard working (what even is a break?)
relatively short tempered (we got latin blood in us lol)
girls are usually more attractive than average
guys kinda average ..there's not really anything specific about their style or the way they look
we love clubbing - for real, we even have our own (kinda *****ier) ibiza

My friend is in love with a Romanian girl but he's too afraid to tell her. He feels as if she'll reject him.

=)))can't give any specific advice but he should just ask her out
tell him to go for sth (relatively) classy and to dress well
romanian girls like **** like this lol=))

Hi
Seeing as you seem to be giving a fair and honest judgement of romanians can I ask you for some advice?

There is a romanian guy I know who I think likes me and im sure he has done for a while now but he doesnt seem to make a move at all except making lots of eye contact with me. Is this stereotypical of how a romanian guy would act or is he just not that interested? Also if it makes a difference im English. I hope you don't mind me asking.

Not anecdotal at all since this is from towns and cities all over the UK, also reported in local papers, I have noticed foreign men (Polish and Romanian) act like the stereotypical pervy type of men wolf whistling at women, drinking in parks and inviting strangers back to theirs.

That and you know Romanians THEMSELVES telling me that is how people from their own country are.

In Romania too I visited towns and cities, imagine a car with multiple men in stopping and inviting you into their car claiming they are taxi, the local police telling us we are targeted as we are foreigners

I agree though with the uneducated part, not that I know it from Romanians but know some Polish people who say essentially its the poor can't afford a good education so come to Britain for work, the ones that are what we would see as middle class would stay in their country so I assume the same things about Romania.

My ex girlfriend was Romanian and she said she couldn't wait to leave her country as it was full of drunks and men were the old fashioned women do housework and child raising and men drink and work.

Whenever you hear about big scams its often Romanian people involved (Polish seems to be more drink driving)

np
yeah he may just be shy
although i ve met my fair share of shy guys in romania, it's not necessarily stereotypical
...but he may be dealing with a complex of inferiority as a result of the hate that romanians get in general.. and this may deter him from approaching u
why don t u make the first move?

1. they're most likely gypsies, not romanians. in fact, romanians are stereotypically conscious about how they come across to others, so yeah

2. again, most likely gypsies... although i've never experienced this myself

3. i'm not entirely sure about the background that your ex came from, but considering how desperate she was to leave the country, it was probably a relatively bad one

but i can tell you that i ve seen more drunks on a night out in copenhagen than in bucharest

4. what scams are you talking about? and lol, i've just moved to a new place and i have a polish neighbour who's been acting like a pervy creep since day 1.. and he's defo not a gypsy .. would that allow me to say that all polish men are like that?

Thanks! Does eye contact mean anything important to Romanians? I would make a move but he doesn't really give me much of an opportunity

Hello! I'm a Romanian guy and I'm kinda shy wih girls untill I get to know them better. I like eye contact a lot and I believe that this guy might really be into you if he keeps doing it. You don't have to make a propper first move, but I advicee you to make him feel approved by you. If he's like me, he will do everything necessary, but only after he feels like he's safe with you and you won't reject him. Just give him those usual hints and try to talk to him in a really private place(only the two of you). You need to do some work at the beginning, but after it, he will do everything. I don't know wheter eye contact is that important for Romanians especially, but it's important anyway. I don't think he might have an inferiority complex. I can't imagine myself as having this problem, mostly because I like foreign girls without a real reason. Hope my advise isn't late. Good luck with him

Greetings from Romania!

Hi
Your advice isn't too late, I'm still in the same situation with this guy. We still always make really intense eye contact and he sometimes looks at me with really sad intimate eyes. We have actually had a conversation now after a friend introduced us and the way he looked at me during it made me think he is interested. I'm just not sure if he'll ever ask me out or not but I hope he might sometime soon.

If he doesn't just ask him out, I don't see why woman are so reluctant. Most guys would say yes to a women without hesitation, if you were to switch the situation, more women probably reject men. I guess it is just the nature of dating where a guy has to to stick his neck out on the line to have a chance whilst women only have to wait around.

what the actual....???

That replying to me?
Im being serious. The only eastern european girls I know have all come over to the uk to make money the same way. They tend to go back home after a few weeks then. I honestly don't know any others.
